在高集成化的半導體器件的製造中,圖案的細微化是必不可少的。為了在小面積集成更多的器件,有必要縮小構成器件的各個圖案及圖案之間的間距。近來,隨著半導體器件的設計規則(design rule)急劇減少,以及目前光刻製程的曝光限制,以致於在形成具有微小線寬和間距的圖形上存在侷限性。 In the manufacture of highly integrated semiconductor devices, miniaturization of patterns is essential. In order to integrate more devices in a small area, it is necessary to reduce each pattern constituting the device and the spacing between the patterns. Recently, with the drastic reduction of the design rules of semiconductor devices and the exposure limitation of the current photolithography process, there are limitations in forming patterns with small line widths and spacings.

目前,為了將精細圖案限制在曝光極限以下,提出了各種蝕刻方法,其中一種就是利用硬光罩的方法。 Currently, various etching methods have been proposed in order to limit fine patterns below the exposure limit, and one of them is a method using a hard mask.

對於所述硬光罩,要求具有針對被蝕刻層的耐蝕刻性。尤其是,在包含多個氧化矽膜和多個氮化矽膜層疊結構的3D NAND器件的情況下,為了針對層疊結構物確保高蝕刻選擇比,正利用非晶碳膜及氧氮化矽膜的層疊結構作為硬光罩。 The hard mask is required to have etching resistance to the layer to be etched. In particular, in the case of a 3D NAND device including a stacked structure of a plurality of silicon oxide films and a plurality of silicon nitride films, an amorphous carbon film and a silicon oxynitride film are being used in order to secure a high etch selectivity for the stacked structure. The stacked structure acts as a hard mask.

由所述非晶碳膜及所述氧氮化矽膜構成的硬光罩通常是在450℃至650℃的高溫下沉積。然而,在如此的高溫下製作硬光罩層時,可能劣化下部之被蝕刻層的特性,從而進一步地存在改變器件特性的問題。 The hard mask composed of the amorphous carbon film and the silicon oxynitride film is usually deposited at a high temperature of 450°C to 650°C. However, when the hard mask layer is formed at such a high temperature, the properties of the underlying etched layer may be degraded, thereby further causing the problem of changing device properties.

據此,在以往提出了在100至250℃的低溫下只沉積與被蝕刻層相對相鄰的非晶碳膜。但是,該方式仍然是在高溫下沉積構成硬光罩的 氧氮化矽膜,因此高溫可能使得在下部的非晶碳膜出現破損,從而可能引起硬光罩圖案的圖案缺陷。 Accordingly, it has been proposed in the past to deposit only the amorphous carbon film relatively adjacent to the layer to be etched at a low temperature of 100 to 250°C. However, this method is still deposited at high temperature to form the hard mask Silicon oxynitride film, so high temperature may cause damage to the lower amorphous carbon film, which may cause pattern defects in the hard mask pattern.

本發明的實施例提供一種與下部薄膜保持蝕刻選擇比的同時可降低對下部薄膜的破壞的薄膜沉積方法及利用該薄膜沉積方法的半導體器件的製造方法。 Embodiments of the present invention provide a thin film deposition method capable of reducing damage to a lower thin film while maintaining an etching selectivity ratio with the lower thin film, and a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device using the thin film deposition method.

The film deposition method includes the following steps: placing the substrate containing the lower film deposited under the process temperature condition of the low temperature zone on the substrate supporting frame; depositing an upper thin film on top of the lower thin film; after the step of depositing the upper thin film, treating the surface of the upper thin film in a plasma environment under the process temperature conditions of the low temperature zone, wherein the low temperature zone The process temperature ranges from 100 to 250°C.

另外,本發明一實施例的半導體器件的製造方法包括以下步驟:在半導體基板上部形成基底層;在低溫帶的製程溫度下在所述基底層上部沉積與所述基底層具有蝕刻選擇比的下部薄膜;在所述低溫帶的製程溫度下在所述下部薄膜上部沉積與所述下部薄膜具有蝕刻選擇比的上部薄膜;電漿處理所述上部薄膜來形成硬光罩;以及利用所述硬光罩將所述基底層圖案化,其中,所述低溫帶的製程溫度在100至250℃的範圍;所述上部薄膜為利用反應氣體及比所述反應氣體過量的源氣體沉積,所述電漿處理是供應所述反應氣體來進行。 In addition, the manufacturing method of a semiconductor device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps: forming a base layer on the upper part of the semiconductor substrate; thin film; depositing an upper thin film having an etch selectivity to the lower thin film on top of the lower thin film at the process temperature of the low temperature zone; plasma treating the upper thin film to form a hard mask; and using the hard photo mask to pattern the base layer, wherein the process temperature of the low temperature zone is in the range of 100 to 250°C; the upper film is deposited by using a reactive gas and an excess source gas than the reactive gas, and the plasma Processing is performed by supplying the reactive gas.

根據本發明的實施例,為了代替將構成硬光罩的下部薄膜和上部薄膜全部在低溫帶的製程溫度下沉積,可改變上部薄膜的沉積方式,以 補償上部薄膜的蝕刻選擇比。據此,在充分補償蝕刻選擇比的同時可在低溫下沉積硬光罩,因此最終可防止圖案缺陷。 According to an embodiment of the present invention, instead of depositing both the lower film and the upper film constituting the hard mask at the process temperature of the low temperature zone, the deposition method of the upper film can be changed to Compensates for the etch selectivity of the upper film. According to this, a hard mask can be deposited at a low temperature while sufficiently compensating for an etching selectivity ratio, and thus pattern defects can finally be prevented.

參照圖1、圖2及圖3,本發明提供形成有下部薄膜120的基板100(S1)。在本實施例中,在基板100與下部薄膜120之間還可形成相當於被蝕刻層的基底層110。例如,基底層110可以是交替反復層疊的氧化矽膜110a及氮化矽膜110b的層疊結構體。另外,雖未在附圖詳細顯示,但是在半導體基板100與基底層110之間還可介入單獨的器件層。在本實施例中,對於基底層110顯示了交替層疊的氧化矽膜110a及氮化矽膜110b的示例,但是在此也可以是各種被蝕刻層。 Referring to FIG. 1 , FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 , the present invention provides a substrate 100 ( S1 ) on which a lower thin film 120 is formed. In this embodiment, a base layer 110 corresponding to the layer to be etched may also be formed between the substrate 100 and the lower film 120 . For example, the base layer 110 may be a stacked structure of silicon oxide films 110 a and silicon nitride films 110 b stacked alternately and repeatedly. In addition, although not shown in detail in the drawings, a separate device layer may also be interposed between the semiconductor substrate 100 and the base layer 110 . In this embodiment, an example of alternately stacking silicon oxide films 110 a and silicon nitride films 110 b is shown for the base layer 110 , but various etched layers may also be used here.

下部薄膜120為與所述被蝕刻層具有蝕刻選擇比的物質,例如可利用非晶碳膜(amorphous carbon layer)、氧化鈦膜或者旋轉塗佈二氧化矽(Spin on glass,SOG)。本實施例的下部薄膜120可在低溫帶的製程溫度,例如100至250℃下形成。據此,在沉積下部薄膜120時,可減少對所述下部的被蝕刻層的熱效應。 The lower film 120 is a material having an etching selectivity to the layer to be etched, for example, an amorphous carbon layer, a titanium oxide film, or spin-on-glass (SOG) can be used. The lower thin film 120 of this embodiment can be formed at a low-temperature process temperature, for example, 100 to 250° C. Accordingly, when the lower thin film 120 is deposited, the thermal effect on the lower etched layer can be reduced.

參照圖1和圖4,在雙頻率(例如,高頻及低頻)下在下部薄膜120上部沉積上部薄膜130作為所述硬光罩的另一部分(S2)。上部薄膜130可利用與下部薄膜120具有蝕刻選擇比的材料膜,例如,氧氮化矽膜(SiON)。本實施例的上部薄膜130可在低溫帶的製程溫度下,例如與下部薄膜120的沉積溫度實際相同的低溫帶的製程溫度(100至250℃)下沉積。據此,在沉積上部薄膜130時,不會在下部薄膜120引起熱破壞。在附圖中,「HM」可稱為硬光罩層。 Referring to FIGS. 1 and 4 , an upper film 130 is deposited on top of the lower film 120 as another part of the hard mask at dual frequencies (eg, high frequency and low frequency) ( S2 ). The upper film 130 may use a material film having an etch selectivity to the lower film 120 , for example, silicon oxynitride film (SiON). The upper film 130 of the present embodiment can be deposited at a low-temperature process temperature, for example, a low-temperature process temperature (100 to 250° C.) that is actually the same as the deposition temperature of the lower film 120 . Accordingly, when the upper thin film 130 is deposited, thermal damage is not caused in the lower thin film 120 . In the drawings, "HM" may be referred to as a hard mask layer.

例如,由所述氧氮化矽膜構成之本實施例的上部薄膜130可通過SiH4及N2O氣體(或者NO氣體)的反應形成。作為一示例,所述SiH4和N2O的比例能夠以1.2~2.5比1的比例提供。相比於所述N2O增加SiH4氣體的含量,因此可改善氧氮化矽膜的蝕刻選擇比。另外,所述氧氮化矽膜可在1.5至4.0Torr的壓力下形成。另外,在本實施例中,作為用於形成氧氮化矽膜的反應氣體,利用N2O或者NO來代替NH3可減少氧氮化矽膜內的氫(H)含量。因此,可補償低溫沉積的氧氮化矽膜的蝕刻選擇比。 For example, the upper thin film 130 of this embodiment composed of the silicon oxynitride film can be formed by the reaction of SiH 4 and N 2 O gas (or NO gas). As an example, the ratio of SiH 4 and N 2 O can be provided in a ratio of 1.2-2.5 to 1. The SiH 4 gas content is increased compared to the N 2 O, thereby improving the etch selectivity of the silicon oxynitride film. In addition, the silicon oxynitride film can be formed under a pressure of 1.5 to 4.0 Torr. In addition, in this embodiment, as the reaction gas for forming the silicon oxynitride film, using N 2 O or NO instead of NH 3 can reduce the hydrogen (H) content in the silicon oxynitride film. Therefore, the etch selectivity of the low temperature deposited silicon oxynitride film can be compensated.

例如,本實施例的上部薄膜130可在如圖5所示的基板處理裝置中沉積。 For example, the upper thin film 130 of this embodiment can be deposited in a substrate processing apparatus as shown in FIG. 5 .

參照圖1、圖4至圖7,所述上部薄膜沉積步驟S2可包括將腔室200內部穩定化的步驟(S21)。所述穩定化步驟S21可以是營造可在低溫帶的製程溫度下沉積上部薄膜130的環境的步驟。為了沉積上部薄膜130,腔室200內部可營造100至250℃的溫度及1.5至4.0Torr的壓力。 1, 4 to 7, the upper thin film deposition step S2 may include a step of stabilizing the inside of the chamber 200 (S21). The stabilizing step S21 may be a step of creating an environment capable of depositing the upper thin film 130 at a process temperature in a low temperature zone. In order to deposit the upper film 130 , a temperature of 100 to 250° C. and a pressure of 1.5 to 4.0 Torr can be created inside the chamber 200 .

在將腔室200內部穩定化的狀態下在下部薄膜120上沉積上部薄膜130(S22)。上部薄膜130可以是如上所述在100至250℃的溫度及1.5至4.0Torr的壓力下以1.2~2.5比1的比例供應所述源氣體(SiH4)及反應氣體(N2O)而成。通過將所述源氣體(SiH4)的比例比反應氣體(N2O)的比例增加預定量,可改善針對下部薄膜120的上部薄膜130的蝕刻選擇比。結果,可補償上部薄膜130的低溫沉積的蝕刻選擇比。 The upper thin film 130 is deposited on the lower thin film 120 in a state where the interior of the chamber 200 is stabilized (S22). The upper thin film 130 may be formed by supplying the source gas (SiH 4 ) and the reaction gas (N 2 O) at a ratio of 1.2 to 2.5 to 1 at a temperature of 100 to 250° C. and a pressure of 1.5 to 4.0 Torr as described above. . By increasing the ratio of the source gas (SiH 4 ) to the ratio of the reaction gas (N 2 O) by a predetermined amount, the etching selectivity of the upper thin film 130 to the lower thin film 120 may be improved. As a result, the etch selectivity of the low-temperature deposition of the upper thin film 130 can be compensated.

另外,本實施例的上部薄膜130在雙頻(即高頻(HF)及低頻(LF))下沉積。通過利用所述低頻(LF)促進離子能及離子轟擊(bombardment),補償通過低溫沉積的上部薄膜130的熱能,可防止不穩定鍵合。 In addition, the upper thin film 130 of this embodiment is deposited under dual frequency (ie high frequency (HF) and low frequency (LF)). By using the low frequency (LF) to promote ion energy and ion bombardment, compensating thermal energy of the upper thin film 130 deposited by low temperature, unstable bonding can be prevented.

然後,在所述雙頻下進行電漿處理(S3)。所述電漿處理步驟S3為停止供應所述源氣體(SiH4),而可只供應反應氣體(N2O)來進行。利用N2O氣體的電漿處理步驟S3可在所述低溫帶的製程溫度(例如100至250℃的溫度)下可與上部薄膜130沉積步驟接連進行。為了通過所述電漿處理改善上部薄膜130表面的硬度,可改性上部薄膜130的表面。據此,可進一步改善蝕刻選擇比。雖未在附圖詳細顯示,但是通過所述電漿處理製程也可在上部薄膜130的表面生成氧化膜。 Then, plasma treatment is performed under the double frequency (S3). The plasma treatment step S3 can be performed by supplying only the reaction gas (N 2 O) without supplying the source gas (SiH 4 ). The plasma treatment step S3 using N 2 O gas may be performed successively with the deposition step of the upper thin film 130 at the process temperature of the low temperature zone (for example, a temperature of 100 to 250° C.). In order to improve the hardness of the surface of the upper thin film 130 through the plasma treatment, the surface of the upper thin film 130 may be modified. Accordingly, the etching selectivity can be further improved. Although not shown in detail in the drawings, an oxide film can also be formed on the surface of the upper film 130 through the plasma treatment process.

然後,雖未在附圖顯示,但是在吹掃製程腔室200內來清除未反應的成分及腔室200內的雜質。 Then, although not shown in the drawing, the process chamber 200 is purged to remove unreacted components and impurities in the chamber 200 .

構成硬光罩層的上部薄膜130為了確保高蝕刻選擇比,通常是高溫沉積。但是,在高溫沉積上部薄膜130的情況下,可能對下部薄膜120甚至是基底層110造成熱破壞。 The upper thin film 130 constituting the hard mask layer is usually deposited at a high temperature in order to ensure a high etch selectivity. However, in the case of depositing the upper thin film 130 at a high temperature, thermal damage may be caused to the lower thin film 120 and even the base layer 110 .

據此,在本實施例中,與下部薄膜120相同,在不影響基底層110的物理特性的低溫帶的製程溫度(例如100至250℃)下沉積上部薄膜130。 Accordingly, in this embodiment, the same as the lower film 120 , the upper film 130 is deposited at a low-temperature process temperature (for example, 100 to 250° C.) that does not affect the physical properties of the base layer 110 .

同時,為了能夠補償在低溫下沉積的上部薄膜130的蝕刻選擇比,相比於反應氣體的比例增加源氣體的比例,並可在1.5至4Torr的壓力下沉積上部薄膜130。另外,在本實施例中,為了補償在低溫下沉積的上部薄膜130的蝕刻選擇比,與上部薄膜130的沉積接連地只供應所述反應氣體在低溫帶下進行電漿處理。據此,改性所述上部薄膜的表面特性,以及補償蝕刻選擇比。 Meanwhile, in order to be able to compensate the etch selectivity of the upper thin film 130 deposited at low temperature, the ratio of the source gas is increased compared to the ratio of the reactive gas, and the upper thin film 130 may be deposited at a pressure of 1.5 to 4 Torr. In addition, in this embodiment, in order to compensate the etching selectivity of the upper thin film 130 deposited at a low temperature, plasma treatment is performed at a low temperature zone by supplying only the reactive gas successively with the deposition of the upper thin film 130 . Accordingly, the surface properties of the upper thin film are modified, and etch selectivity is compensated.

另外,利用氫含量少的N2O氣體作為用於沉積所述上部薄膜的反應氣體,進而能夠更加補償蝕刻選擇比。 In addition, by using N 2 O gas with a low hydrogen content as the reaction gas for depositing the upper thin film, the etching selectivity can be further compensated.

另外,在本實施例中,在沉積上部薄膜130時與HF電源一同利用LF電源,可以補償熱能及離子反應效率,進而可追加補償上部薄膜130的蝕刻選擇比。 In addition, in this embodiment, the LF power source is used together with the HF power source when depositing the upper film 130 to compensate thermal energy and ion reaction efficiency, and further compensate the etching selectivity of the upper film 130 .

以上,舉較佳的實施例詳細說明了本發明,但是本發明不限於上述實施例,而是在該領域具有普通知識的人可在本發明的技術思想範圍內能夠進行各種變化。 As above, the present invention has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, but the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and those who have ordinary knowledge in this field can make various changes within the scope of the technical idea of the present invention.
